Definitely one of the better games i played for this Jam yet. The tools are all there, it just needs a bit of fixing.

The collector was too much missing, and i didn't even know how it exactly worked until way way late into the game. And since it worked so inefficiently, it was the only thing i upgraded, and it still wasn't worth it spending all that ore on it. In the wave where the first UFO appeared i barely had any ores left. I was able to destroy the UFO and some asteroids, but then were left ammo-less and quickly died. Some optimization needs to happen here.

But i had some fun while it lasted, certainly! The graphics also looked good. Heck, i didn't even notice the lack of sound ;)

Like

  • Pixel Art
  • Concept

Dislike

  • You can't turn weapon where you want
  • You can die at the start of the game instantly because you have no ore and there are 2 meteroids 1 meter before earth
  • Ore just dispelled from earth
  • No ore income for upgrades, collector is 98% missing the shots

Idea

Give the earth a gravity so that the ore is slowly pulling floating ore into an Orbit like Saturn, and make the collector grab everything that is in the orbit and not shoot a bubble that misses most of the time.

Cool pixel art! One thing I would recommend is to give the player some ore at the start of the game so they can shoot right away.
